Using CT scans to predict early stomach cancer return
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study uses information from CT scans done before stomach cancer surgery to see if it can predict whether the cancer may come back early. Researchers want to find patterns in the scans that might help doctors plan better follow-up care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with locally advanced gastric cancer (stage pT2NxM0 to pT4NxM0).

- You had a special CT scan of your belly within 4 weeks before your surgery.
- You did not get any cancer treatment (like chemo or radiation) before your surgery.
- You have not had any other type of cancer in the past.

This trial uses a combination of CT scans, ultrasound, and blood tests to predict how well chemotherapy will work for people with locally advanced gastric cancer. The goal is to personalize treatment by identifying who will respond best to neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
This study looks at whether CT scan details and patient health information can help predict how gastric cancer will progress. The goal is to better understand the disease and tailor treatment for each person.
This study uses artificial intelligence to analyze your CT scan and predict whether stomach cancer has spread to lymph nodes behind your belly. The goal is to help doctors decide if you need more extensive surgery.
This trial uses CT scan images and a look inside the abdomen (laparoscopy) to predict whether advanced stomach cancer has spread to the lining of the abdomen (the peritoneum). It may help your care team better identify who already has peritoneal spread and who might not.
This study looks for ways to predict whether neoadjuvant chemotherapy (chemo given before surgery) will work well in people with locally advanced stomach cancer. It may help doctors choose the best treatment plan sooner based on your test results.
This study uses a special type of ct scan (energy ct) to help doctors see stomach cancer more clearly. If you have been diagnosed with stomach cancer and are scheduled for surgery, this imaging test may help guide your treatment.
